Yep! PS500. I haven't had a huge chance to listen to them, as the Valhalla is sounding very nice with the Fischers... And the AKG's are sounding very nice with the Soloist! So my Grados are a little bit neglected... I'll see if I can put in some hours, and let you know...
I have the Sennhieser HD 650's currently powered by the X-Cans V2 with the X-PSU external power supply. I was looking to upgrade to a newer headphone amp and was thinking about the Valhalla. I tried the Woo Audio WA6 and didn't think it was enough of an upgrade to be worth the money. It seemed to have a wider soundstage and perhaps a slightly sweeter sound but no tighter bass and seemed to have less reserve (just in case I moved up to the Sennhieser HD 800's.) I am looking for a little tighter bass and a more musical (or "tube-like") midrange. Originally had thought about the Lyr but I was not sure about it's higher noise floor. Any recommendations?
Hey Randy i think you will probably get more replies about your decision on which amp to choose on this tread http://www.head-fi.org/t/601151/schiit-owners-unite/4440#post_10285980
If you do decide on the Valhalla, which should work fine with the 300ohm resistance of the hd650, you can use this thread to help tune the amp a bit to your preferences listed above. http://www.head-fi.org/t/619910/schiit-valhalla-tube-rolling-thread
